Abstract | Among 228 carbapenem-nonsusceptible Enterobacteriaceae isolated in China, 65 were carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE). Among them, 41, 22, 1, and 1 produced KPC-2, IMP-4, IMP-8, and IMP-1, respectively. KPC-2-producing CPE showed higher resistance than IMP-4-producing ones. Furthermore, the first outbreak of ST11 KPC-2-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae in a Beijing second-degree hospital was identified. (C) 2014 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved. |
